    C405 Connector - How to Depin Female (Door) Side of Connector

    Hi all!

    My power mirrors are currently not working and I suspect it is because the mirror switch is not getting any power.

    Upon inspecting the C405 plug (in the door jam), I realized that the round receptacle on the female (door) side of the connector has been pushed back for the GN/WT wire corresponding to power for the mirror switch...

    Anyone know what tool I need to depin the female portion of the connector so that I can try to clean and reinstall the round receptacle and get it to align properly with the pin?

    Thanks :)

      Thanks brother would be great! Ordered one but it was slightly too small. Ended up depinning it with the end of an old antenna, though if you can post a link / picture of the tool you bought that would be great! :)

        this is the kit I ordered, I think two of them fit. One of them I put in my drill press and sanded the outside a little bit.
